Hibernate/suspend works without quirks, but not with Gnome



I have a desktop system that is fully capable of hibernating and
suspending. Both

% pm-hibernate

and

% pm-suspend

work beautifully. I don't need to supply any further command line
options. Resuming is also no problems. Despite this
gnome-power-manager refuses to let me hibernate/suspend using the
shutdown dialogue. Confusingly the message written to /var/log/messages
on an attempt to hibernate is:

Jun 30 22:11:55 tatooine gnome-power-manager: (magnus) Resuming computer
Jun 30 22:11:55 tatooine gnome-power-manager: (magnus) hibernate failed

I'm not really sure how to get this working from Gnome. The quirks
pages don't seem to handle this situation...
